What a lovely place right next to the canal we stopped overnight. Would recommend it.
Nice and quiet lovey place to relax
Music event on. A lot of people attended. It's a great family area.
Stunning area for walks to Wonsford and to sit and relax while feeding the ducks and breathing in the fresh air and soaking up the scenery if your lucky you might spot the famous kingfisher
Just a few parking spaces and picnic benches next to the canal/River. We stopped off to eat our fish and chips. Pleasant enough.
